Japan's leading cell phone carrier NTT DoCoMo, generally recognized as the most technologically innovative of all the world's wireless telephone providers, has picked Apple's QuickTime 6 to be its audio and video platform for future mobile phones. To implement QuickTime 6 on cell phones, Apple will introduce a modified version of the stuff this year that supports the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standard. 3GPP is based on the open MPEG-4 standard for encoding, decoding and transmitting digital video and audio to PCs, cell phones, set-top boxes and other wired and wireless Internet-connected devices. Besides being known for pushing the tech envelope, DoCoMo has 44 million subscribers in Japan making it one of the world's largest cell phone service providers.

Last Friday we had a very interesting day doing some motion capture at Motek in Amsterdam.
We are working with actor William Sutton (with the funny hat) to create a hybrid theatre - multimedia show.
Here everything is being adjusted prior to the actual capture session. That is Oshri from Motek on the right.
Body and face movement are captured in real time.
Then translated into the computer for use in 3D animation software.
